Sugarcane Is Coming to Coogee
The Surry Hills favourite is headed to the seaside.
The flavours of Southeast Asia are heading to the beach. Chef Milan Strbac of Sugarcane in Surry Hills confirmed this week that the upscale eatery would be launching a second site in Coogee. The 100 seat restaurant and cocktail bar is set to begin service in mid-July – and if you're anything like us, you're already counting down the days.
"The area is in need of an upmarket Asian restaurant," Strbac told Hospitality Magazine. "There are a couple of decent restaurants offering different styles of food down there at the moment, but nothing similar to my style."
In addition to Strbac himself, the team at Sugarcane Coogee will include ex-Longrain chef Tristan Balian and Strbac's Juicy Lucy co-owner Griff Pamment. Not a half bad roster, we think you'll agree.
Open for dinner Tuesday through Sunday, the restaurant will occupy the Carr Street site previously held by Nissaki Greek Taverna. The menu is expected to be similar to the one at Sugarcane Surry Hills, albeit with more of a seafood focus befitting the beachfront location.
Sugarcane Coogee will open mid-July at 56 Carr Street, Coogee.
